Ben

Now this is more like it. Holding Megan close to me, burrowing my nose in her hair, relaxes my mind, but not so much my body, which, obvious to both of us, wants more of her.

Though Megan fidgets in bed with me, I hold her near me anyway, enjoying the feel of our skin against each other. I grin into her hair, amazed she’s my ninety-fiver. Amazed at how I knew every answer about her before the questionnaire. All fall, we watched football, so obviously I knew she’s a Mustangs fan. Big Joe is her favorite player. “He’s a Smith like me,” she’d said, which looking back now was the perfect answer. She didn’t lie. With her in my arms, I can’t help but think we are made for each other. Now I have to convince her.

As I think about ways to convince Meg of things, I squirm, adjusting my dick so it’s not poking her in the back. In the process, she turns to me, her eyelids heavy.

“Put that thing away,” she murmurs.

“Are you offering me a place for it?”

She rolls onto her side, and I spoon her again. “Too tired.”

I hold her while she settles, trailing my fingers down the side of her thigh. That she’s not bolting for the door is a miracle.

As if she could read my mind, a few seconds later, her body tenses under my arm. “Ben?”

Here it comes. “Hmm?”

“I need to get up.” Yep.

I don’t move. “No. Stay with me.”

She rolls over to face me again, but I don’t open my eyes. She pokes my shoulder. “I need to get something.”

“You can get it tomorrow. Go to sleep.”

“I promise I’ll come back.”

I open my eyes to study her. She looks awake, alert. “I don’t believe you.”

“I swear,” she says. “I want to share something with you, but I need to get it from my room.”

I stare, not sure if she’s bluffing. Her eyes are wide and her face soft. I release my arms, taking the risk. “If you’re not back in five, I’m coming to find you to drag your cute ass back here.”

“Jeez, Bossy Ben. I’ll be right back.” She kisses my nose and rolls over me, taking half the covers with her then wiggles into her pajamas.

When Megan leaves, I stand and stretch, throw the sheets back on the bed, and find a pair of boxers and a tee shirt. I dig out two water bottles from the tiny fridge buried in the bottom of my closet and sit at my desk, waiting for her.

I almost don’t believe it when she opens the door a few minutes later, holding a couple of envelopes. One I recognize as the letter from the day she passed out.

I hold my hands out to her and welcome her into my lap. “Thanks for coming back.”

Megan sits in the chair with me and puts her arms around my neck. Then she apologizes.

“Why are you sorry?” I ask.

“For making you feel like you have to thank me for coming back.
